As one of the premier female reggae vocalists from the 1960s on, Marcia Griffiths has blazed an indelible and lengthy musical trail. REGGAE ANTHOLOGY: MELODY LIFE is a comprehensive collection of Griffiths's work, covering everything from her early Studio One recordings with legendary producer Coxsone Dodd to more contemporary cuts that find her collaborating with dancehall stars Bounty Killer and Buju Banton. Listening to Griffiths taking on a straight-up R&B ballad alongside Bob Marley (whom she also backed as part of the I-Threes) and then hearing her leap into her '80s smash, "Electric Boogie," it becomes apparent that the Jamaican songbird's flexibility is as much a constant as her sweet, smooth singing style. |
